The Ukrainian president has expressed his disappointment with the man who performed a coup d'etat with leftists to take over the Israeli government management:

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Thursday expressed disappointment at the Israeli leadership’s response to his requests for aid as his country fights off a Russian invasion.

“I expected greater support from Prime Minister [Naftali] Bennett,” he said at a press conference.

“I saw a nice picture of Jews wrapped in [Ukrainian] flags by the Western Wall,” said Zelensky, who is Jewish. “They prayed for us, and I thank them for it. Our relations with the Israeli leadership are not bad, but they are being tested in a time of need. I did not feel that the Israeli prime minister is wrapped in our flag.”

He's not wrapped in the Israeli flag either. It was reported earlier that Bennett refused a request for military aid from Ukraine, and this is further compounding the negative image he's molded for himself. If there's anybody Zelensky shouldn't rely upon here in Israel, it's people like Bennett, and Yair Lapid.

Here's also a history item about Zelensky's Jewish background, and what it means to be Jewish in such a country.
